Developments for the Commuted Piano.
Scott A. Van Duyne, Julius O. Smith · 1995
ABSTRACT: We present here three developments for the Commuted Piano Synthesis model described more fully elswhere in these proceedings [3]: (1)a theoretical foundation and calibration scheme for the required linearized piano hammer system; (2) a simple algorithmic synthesis approach for the commuted soundboard impulse response, eliminating the need for any wavetable memory; and (3) a calibration method for the coupled string system, required for high quality two-stage piano tone decay. 1
